Freshman program course for precalculus level students in all engineering disciplines covering engineering and academic materials relevant for student success in college and engineering. An overview of the field of engineering as a career and the introduction of skills such as problem solving, units and conversions, and graphing as well as personal time and money management, note and test taking, reading, and critical thinking. This course does not apply toward the core curriculum for any UA engineering major but is required for students entering below the MATH 113 level. It cannot be combined with DR 100/DR 125/DR 133 and CS 102 as a replacement or substitute for GES 131.

Introductory freshman-level course for students from all engineering disciplines incorporating an overview of engineering as a profession and basic skills required for engineering with an emphasis on problem solving, ethics, teaming, oral and written technical communication, and the design process. Students are recommended to have a demonstrated knowledge of computer software usage for spreadsheets, word processing, presentation software, e-mail, and the internet prior to GES 131 or to enroll in CS 102 in conjunction with GES 131.
